Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clintons mysterious email server has been in a private data center in New Jersey since 2013, that is, until the IT company the former secretary of state hired to maintain the hardware handed the blank device over to the FBI Wednesday.
Clintons attorney, David Kendall, informed the Department of State in a letter Wednesday that the company hired to manage and maintain the server, Denver-based Platte River Networks, was turning it over to the Department of Justice. Kendall also told State he handed over three thumb drives that contained Clintons emails.
The Washington Post reported the FBI recently contacted the company to obtain the server. That move followed reports that the Intelligence Community inspector general had discovered that at least two emails maintained in Clintons records contained Top Secret information.
The server was housed in the basement of Clintons Chappaqua, N.Y. home while she was secretary of state. After she left office, Clinton hired Platte River Networks, which moved the system from her home to a private data center in New Jersey.
Barbara Wells, an attorney for the company, told The Post agents picked the server up at around 4 p.m. Wednesday. But she said the hardware is now blank and no longer contains any useful information.
The information had been migrated over to a different server for purposes of transition, said Wells. The transfer was carried out in June 2013, she told The Post.
To my knowledge the data on the old server is not available now on any servers or devices in Platte River Networks control.
It is unclear whether that means the data once maintained on Clintons server is gone altogether or whether there is another device that contains Clintons records. Wells did not respond to an email from The Daily Caller.
While Wells said the FBI assured Platte River Networks that it is not the target of any investigation, Republican lawmakers have questions for the company.
Senate Homeland Security Committee chairman Ron Johnson sent a letter to Platte Rivers chairman Treve Suazo asking for information about the security of Clintons server.
Given that the server was used to conduct official State Department business, questions have been raised regarding whether classified information was stored on the private server, Johnson wrote in a letter obtained by McClatchy. He also sought to find out if that data was secure, who had access to that material and whether all official documents were appropriately preserved.
New Jersey is blank and insecure?....Always has been. How do you think Christie became Governor?
Treve Suazo, why sure...
According to my heritage.com, that name indicates he hails from the USA. Or if not, then Chile, Honduras, the Philippines, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Peru or Nicaragua in that order of likelihood.
Seriously here’s the lowdown on TS from the source. So very informative. Not.

I would be astonished if any drives in Hellabeast’s server havent been overwritten a dozen times, smashed to pieces, encased in concrete and lost at sea.
...it was GONE!!!!
If I was part of Hillary’s organization, you bet I’d be insecure.
Why would a data company hold onto a blank server.
Why would Hillary keep paying for the data company to store her blank server?
...computer electronics recycling, data destruction, e-waste disposal, computer service and repair, IT support and consulting.
Anyone want to see if there's a $$$ connection to the Clintons?
Well, if we are going to do the conspiracy theory game; here is my contribution:
What if the "RESET" button to Russia was actually a way to signal that they could easily see whatever classified/top secret info that they wanted?
Barack Obama seems to be all about undermining our security; perhaps HRC is in the same frame of mind.
Is it me, or am I seeing a lot of names that are not ‘Mer-can.
You bet. Do you go to prison, or wind up dead? Those are the real choices they may be looking at here. Some of them may go interview with Kim Jong Un. Better job security.
In New Jersey? So, it was run by the Mob (like everything else in NJ).
What I’m waiting for is the “everybody has been hacked” excuse. Chi-Coms and NORKS have compromised all government employees.
A classic “what difference at this point does it make?”.
Let me begin, in 2011, the expectation that government email accounts are hacked by foreign entities, was much lower.
Due diligence to prevent hacking, especially at this level is: expected.
She is showing her scorn for the people. This arrogant America-hating lawbreaker needs to go to jail.
The hard drive and Luca Brasi are sleeping together
What is on the thumb drives? Hillary had everything in digital format and chose to print out 110 reams of paper hard copies to turn over to the State Department. She is really re-defining the meaning of dirt-bag.
Her server is Jell-O!
Doesn’t the new hard drive have a number or identity code that could be traced, as to when/where it was purchased and by whom?
I don’t know enough about this, but I have watched a few TV crime programs. LOL!
I’d be checking the drive’s manufacturing date too. If the drive us newer than the subpoena, the GOP might be forced to write a strongly worded letter.
Ha - that's nothing, before Christie there were Corzine and McGreevey!
